A new homebrew emulator, PS5SX2, lets jailbroken PS5 consoles play many PS2 discs with 4K upscaling, widescreen support and enhanced graphics. However, jailbreaking requires outdated firmware and permanently sacrifices PlayStation Network access, online multiplayer, the Store and newer games. Some CD-based PS2 titles also cannot run directly. With better emulation options available for PCs, Steam Decks and phones, modifying a PS5 offers little benefit and significant risks.

PS5の2026年9月16日配信のシステムソフトウェア更新で、ボイスチャット中に話しているプレイヤーの名前を画面に表示できる機能が正式搭載された。初期設定では無効のため、パーティー参加後にコントロールセンターの「ボイスチャット」から「話者を表示」を選び、「名前を表示」をオンにする必要がある。表示位置も変更でき、最大16人のパーティーで話者を特定しやすくなる。Discordにも対応するが、ゲーム内ボイスチャットでは利用できない。

Grand Theft Auto VI reportedly requires 210GB of storage on PlayStation 5, according to a dataminer corroborated by Insider Gaming. The large download may increase with a day-one patch. Preloading begins November 12, ahead of the game’s November 19 release.

The PS5’s USB ports support much more than controller charging. External SSDs or HDDs can store PS5 games for archiving and run PS4 games, while separate FAT32 or exFAT drives can save screenshots, videos, and system backups. USB connections also pair and charge DualSense controllers, power PS VR2, cameras, wired or wireless headsets, racing wheels, fight sticks, keyboards, and mice. The console can play video files from compatible USB drives and use USB hubs, though some devices may not function through them. Fast USB ports should be used for demanding accessories and external storage, while the slower USB 2.0 port is better suited to charging.

『Ghost of Yōtei』を開発したSucker Punch Productionsが、10月26日に24人の従業員を解雇した。市場環境の厳しさと次回作のチーム編成を理由に、複数の職種を削減したという。同作は発売初月に330万本を売り、最近は好評の拡張版も発売したが、ゲーム業界では大規模な人員削減が続いている。親会社ソニーは翌週に決算を発表する予定である。

PlayStation Plus launched in 2010 at $50 per year, offering monthly games, DLC, beta access and trial versions without requiring online multiplayer. Prices rose in 2016, and Sony introduced Essential, Extra and Premium tiers in 2022. In 2026, Essential costs $80 annually, Extra $135 and Premium $160, with online play, monthly games, game catalogs and retro-game streaming.

Ken Kutaragi, who led development of the original PlayStation, PS2 and PS3, understands players’ anger over Sony’s plan to end physical PS5 game production in 2028 but agrees that discs are becoming economically impractical. He says discs symbolize game ownership, while modern players increasingly trust digital access. Sony reports that digital sales already account for 82% of full-game sales, making physical software less than 4% of game revenue. Kutaragi believes Sony now views PlayStation as a content terminal shaped by streaming technology. Former executives hold mixed opinions, while a proposed U.S. bill seeks to recognize purchased games as owned and require offline functionality after server shutdowns.

PS5は、テレビやモニターのHDMIポートを誤ると、映像が表示されても性能を十分に発揮できない。4K・120Hz、VRR、低遅延モードを利用するには、機種の仕様を確認し、対応するHDMI 2.1端子へ純正またはUltra High Speedケーブルで直接接続する必要がある。端子番号は性能を示さないため、画面側とPS5側の設定も確認する。

ソニーは、PlayStation向け新型ワイヤレスヘッドセット「PlayStation Pulse」を11月19日に発売する。価格は100ドルで、米国、英国、カナダ、日本などで展開し、予約受付は10月29日に開始する。白とミッドナイトブラックを用意し、従来機より大型の平面磁気ドライバーを搭載する。AI強化ノイズ除去マイク、Bluetooth、PlayStation Linkに対応し、PS5やPCなどで低遅延・高音質を実現する。

Sony’s latest PS5 firmware, 14.10, may have been compromised through a kernel exploit that exposes Debug Settings. However, no hypervisor exploit has emerged, so GTA VI cannot yet be pirated or played elsewhere.

Though many streaming services have abandoned the PlayStation 3, the aging console remains useful. It can play and upscale DVDs and Blu-rays, stream PC media, rip CDs, run retro games, and be sold for cash.

An orange light on the PlayStation 5 is not a warning; it means the console is in Rest Mode. In this state, the PS5 uses little power while charging controllers, downloading games, updating software, uploading saves, and supporting remote play. Users can adjust or disable Rest Mode through Settings > System > Power Saving, and should never unplug the console until all lights turn off. An orange light on the controller instead means its microphone is muted. Actual hardware warning signs include unexpected shutdowns, excessive heat or fan noise, temperature alerts, and visual glitches such as flickering or colored lines. Cleaning vents and improving ventilation may solve overheating, while persistent problems require professional repair. Display glitches may come from an HDMI cable or television, so those should be checked before suspecting GPU failure.

Xbox Series XでPS5ゲームを動かすエミュレーター「PS5X」が開発され、Quake IIなど4作品の起動に成功した。両機はAMD製の近い構成を持ち、PS5向け命令をDirectXへ変換して動作させる仕組みである。ただし利用には開発者モードが必要で、メモリ上限は5GBに制限されるため、大半の現行作は動かせない。公開版もなく、互換性は限定的である。違法コピーや偽サイト、マルウェアにも注意が必要である。

使わなくなった古いPlayStationは、廃棄せず再活用できる。動画配信やDVD・Blu-ray、USBメディア再生用のメディアセンターにでき、コントローラーやケーブル、ハードディスクも他機器で利用可能である。売却は店舗、買い取りサイト、フリマで方法を選べる。譲渡や寄付も有効で、難しい場合は有害物質に配慮して適切にリサイクルするべきである。

GuliKitのTT Maxは、Switch 2向けでは最大級の大型コントローラーである。TMRスティック、交換式背面パドル、調整可能な十字キー、ジャイロ、豊富な振動設定を備え、PC・Xbox・PlayStation系ユーザーにも扱いやすい。Switch 2本体の起動にも対応し、専用ケースや交換パーツも付属する。価格は70ドルで、Proコントローラーより安価である。一方、小さい手には大きく、振動音が大きい点が弱点である。総合評価は9点である。

Titanium Court, an acclaimed roguelite combining visual-novel and RPG elements, arrives on Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Android, and iOS on October 29, following its successful Steam debut and Independent Games Festival Grand Prize win. Players guide a mysterious queen through battles that blend match-three resource gathering with tactical base defense. Its unusual restrictions, strategic depth, humor, pop-culture references, and surreal fantasy setting make it one of 2026’s standout games.

Rockstar Games’ GTA 6 is reportedly scheduled to launch on PC in the first quarter of 2027, potentially by the end of March. The PC version would arrive only a few months after the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S release on November 19, 2026, far sooner than GTA 5’s PC port. The report could affect other games planned for early 2027, as publishers may avoid competing with the highly anticipated title. Rockstar has not announced details about GTA 6’s online mode, though Twitch’s CEO claims it will be released sometime in 2027.

Wireless gaming controllers date back to the Cynex Game Mate 2, released around 1982 for the Atari 2600. Its radio-frequency technology offered a range of about 20 feet, though the controller was bulky and consumed batteries quickly. Infrared alternatives appeared later but suffered from signal interruptions. Wireless controllers became mainstream with Nintendo’s WaveBird for the GameCube in 2002. It provided reliable 2.4GHz connectivity and long battery life, although it lacked rumble support. Sony introduced its first wireless controller, the Sixaxis, with the PlayStation 3 in 2006. Its motion controls and removal of rumble were criticized, leading to the improved DualShock 3.

Distorted PS5 audio should be diagnosed systematically before replacing equipment. Restart the PS5, TV, and speakers completely, then test different games, apps, headphones, HDMI ports, cables, and devices to identify the source. Simplify the setup by connecting the PS5 directly to the TV and replacing cables or removing receivers, switches, and capture cards. Check the PS5’s 3D Audio settings and compare stereo with 3D audio. Under Audio Output, match the HDMI device type, channel number, and audio format to the connected system; Linear PCM generally suits TV speakers, while surround sound may require Dolby formats, ARC, or eARC. Change only one setting at a time. For wired headphones, reconnect the plug, test another headset or controller, adjust volume, and compare 3D Audio on and off. For wireless headphones, reconnect the adapter, restart the headset, and move other wireless devices away. If these checks do not help, the problem may involve faulty hardware.

Before modern GPUs, consoles relied on specialized fixed-function chips that generated graphics from tiles, sprites, and scanlines rather than running programmable code. Early systems had strict limits, such as the NES displaying only eight sprites per scanline, while the Atari 2600 made its CPU manage graphics directly. Early 3D consoles divided geometry and rendering among custom chips, as seen in the PlayStation 2. The original Xbox marked a major shift in 2001 by using a PC-style NVIDIA GPU with programmable shaders. Graphics hardware adopted PC architectures first, while console CPUs followed later, leading to today’s integrated AMD-based systems.

After more than 25 years, researchers have reverse engineered the SPC970 MechaCon security chip used in early “fat” PlayStation 2 consoles. An exploit discovered by Libby causes an EEPROM buffer overflow, allowing the chip’s 256KB mask-ROM firmware to be copied out in roughly 1,000 passes. The team released 22 firmware images covering early PS2 models and Namco arcade boards on GitHub. The dumps could enable modchips, region-free exploits, and more accurate low-level emulation, although they do not immediately create an optical drive emulator or unlock encrypted games. The firmware also reveals Sony’s MagicGate and KELF security processes. Unlike the later Dragon MechaCon, the SPC970 cannot be patched, making future exploits more difficult. The dumping process can damage the EEPROM or disable the console, so it carries significant hardware risk.

Deep Silverは、サバイバルシューター「Metro 2033 Redux」と「Metro: Last Light Redux」に、現行機向けの無料次世代アップデートを提供する。PS5やXbox Series X/Sでは4Kテクスチャー、最大120fps、空間オーディオ、各種アップスケーリングやコントローラー機能に対応する。PC版もDLSSや修正を追加する。配信日はPCが10月22日、コンソールが10月29日で、新作「Metro 2039」は2027年2月4日に発売する。

ソニー・インタラクティブエンタテインメントは、通常版PS5にAIアップスケーリング技術「Quick Spectral Super Resolution(QSSR)」を追加した。対応パッチは『Marvel’s Wolverine』と『Ghost of Yōtei』に提供され、映像の細部や安定性を向上させる。PS5 Pro向け技術を基にAMDと開発し、今後は全PlayStation開発者が導入可能となる。『Ghost of Yōtei』には完全版や追加コンテンツも登場する。

Xbox has unveiled Mythic Achievements, a new badge awarded to players who unlock all original achievements in a game. The feature is retroactive, excludes later DLC, supports Xbox 360 titles, and is currently available only to Xbox Insiders.
